Abstract

Abstract: There are 2.78% of the total population of India who can’t speak. Sign language is a nonverbal form of communication method which is found among all deaf and dumb communities in the world. Normal people do not learn sign language. It causes barriers in communication between deaf dumb and normal people. Hence Deaf-Mute communication requires an interpreter who will convert hand gestures into auditory speech. The past implementation of this project involved using image processing concepts. But the drawback of these implementations is that projects were non portable and too expensive. Therefore, the system is being proposed with the use of flex sensors, accelerometer and android technology. System includes two modules. First module is a hand glove with sensors and microcontroller to convert hand gestures to auditory speech. Second module is an Android App with Google Speech API to convert text signal to speech.
